Listed castle Chartres (28)

CHATEAU BUILT FROM THE 15TH TO THE 20TH CENTURY, 120 KM FROM PARIS IN THE PERCHE REGION - Exceptional charm and character - 5 main buildings - 18 bedrooms - 2,500 m² built area - Southern Perche - 8 km from the A10 motorway exit - 20 hectares - Structural shell in good condition, interior fully requiring restoration. Fully listed Historic Monument. On the edge of a small village in the Perche region, 120 km from Paris and 8 km from the motorway, this chateau of exceptional charm consists of 5 main buildings dating from the 15th to the 20th century, on the site of a former chateau burned during the Hundred Years' War. There are two entrances. The first, on the village side, is through a tall and long wrought-iron gate leading to the former gatehouse residence, now converted into a grand salon. The second entrance, on the park side, passes through a tall crenellated gateway dominated by the imposing “water chateau” tower. The impressive richly decorated medieval gatehouse quickly appears after crossing the bridge spanning the canal, followed by the other courtyard buildings. The heterogeneity of this ensemble reflects the long history of the estate. The original square medieval chateau surrounded by moats was burned in the first half of the 15th century by the Earl of Salisbury, commander-in-chief of the English troops, while on his way to lay siege to Orléans. Rebuilt at the end of the 15th and beginning of the 16th century, the remaining parts of this medieval chateau are the gatehouse known as “Le Donjon” and the Saint-François Tower. This medieval chateau was incorporated in the 19th century into the ensemble formed by the other buildings through the destruction of one of its sides and the filling in of part of the moats connecting it to the “new” chateau. The main body of the current chateau is composed of 16th-, 17th-, and 18th-century buildings. A first pavilion forming a gatehouse residence attached to a gallery was built at the end of the 16th century and remodeled in the second half of the 17th century with the addition of two small pavilions. This ensemble was raised by one additional floor in the 18th century. The enclosure of the gatehouse residence to create a grand office gave it its final appearance. These buildings, together with the Louis XVI pavilion and the other outbuildings, form a U-shaped courtyard overlooking a splendid 20-hectare park, notably featuring a large 200-meter-long terrace overlooking a vast meadow on one side and separated from a woodland of beautiful mature deciduous trees on the other side by a canal. The park also includes sumptuous boxwood embroidery gardens and yew topiaries, as well as a grand avenue and a one-hectare vegetable garden. 5 main buildings: 1 - The “chateau” closest to the village square, known as “Le Pavillon du Bourg”, 16th, 17th, and 18th century. 2 - The gatehouse known as “Le Donjon”, 15th, 18th, and 20th century. A 15th-century gallery, and a residential section built in 1980 connected to an 18th-century tower. 3 - The Saint-François Tower, 15th century. 4 - The Louis XVI pavilion known as the “Renaissance House” and its tower known as “La Cloche”, 16th century, modified in the 17th and 18th centuries. 5 - The outbuildings, 16th–19th–20th century. Superb 16th-century timber frameworks. Location: -120 km from Paris, motorway access 16 km toward Paris, 8 km toward Le Mans. -8 km from Brou, shops and services. Mains water supply, drainage partly connected to mains sewer and partly using septic tanks. Historic Monument protection: The chateau, its outbuildings, and its park: fully listed by decree dated 24 November 1948. Price: 2,756,000 Euros agency fees included (including 5.67% agency fees payable by the buyer). Including fees of 6% TTC to be paid by of the purchaser. Price excluding fees 2 600 000 €. Not subject to DPE. Information on the risks to which this property is exposed is available on the Geohazards website: georisques.gouv.fr.

Listed castle Vic-sur-Cère (15)

A chateau from the Middle Ages & Renaissance, on 15-ha grounds, overlooking the Goul River valley, on the border of the Cantal & Aveyron departments. Erected in the middle of its grounds and nestled in a setting completely sheltered from all disturbances, the chateau, a national Historical Monument, stands above the valley, which marks the historic boundary between Upper Auvergne and the former Rouergue province. Accessible from its eastern side, where at one time there was undoubtedly a drawbridge, the chateau’s origins date back to the Middle Ages when the site was a simple keep surrounded by an enclosure with five to seven defensive towers. Today, the only thing that remains from this era is the first keep to the west, a second tower built in the 15th century to the east, as well as one of the defensive towers, now shortened and surrounded by patios and plenty of open spaces. As for the central dwelling, built in the Renaissance between the two square towers, its southern façade features many mullioned windows and breath-taking sculpted décor around its main entrance, while, to the north, an additional wing was added in the 18th century. Inside, the layout of the rooms has not been modified and, besides an immense Italianate staircase, the ground floor contains a former lower hall, which is now used as a dining room, a small TV room, two kitchens – the original and a more recent one – as well as a door to the cellars and garage, whereas the first floor features a former lords’ hall, a small adjacent sitting room, two bedrooms and a shower room with lavatory. In addition, the door to the chateau’s 18th-century wing gives on to a series of three adjacent bedrooms with washbasins, a bathroom and a separate lavatory, while the second floor includes the immense 'Queen’s bedroom', a study, two more bedrooms and a shower room with lavatory. As for the doorway on the half landing, it opens on to a shower room and an attic in the 18th-century wing, whereas the third floor is made up of an exhibition hall, followed by a guest bedroom, former staff rooms and an interior dovecote. Lastly, a small staircase leads to the attic with an immense room boasting breath-taking wooden rafters and two fireplaces, which precedes an oratory and the upper sections of the two towers, while a caretaker’s cottage and a swimming pool can also be found on the property.

Castle Bergerac (24)

An 18th-century château, dating from around 1750, set in grounds covering over 7.6 hectares. There are places that keep their secrets better than others. On that day, it was the tranquillity of the place that struck me above all else. The château came into view at the bend in a driveway, imposing and serene, as if it had always stood there. I knew that this visit would be unlike any other: some places are not simply visited, they are experienced. The main house offers 600 m² of living space (829 m² in total) across four levels: entrance hall, kitchen, dining room, 46 m² reception lounge, 33 m² library and billiard room, a bedroom with en-suite shower room, and a 43 m² orangery opening onto the grounds and the swimming pool. The upper floors feature several suites with bathrooms or shower rooms, some with dressing rooms or private lounges, and studio-style spaces suitable for kitchenettes, ideal for extended families or rental use. The basement houses two vaulted cellars totalling 70 m². The 1.9-hectare landscaped park, planted with remarkable trees, directly surrounds the château and ensures its privacy, featuring a swimming pool, a well and a spring. Just a short walk away, on the other side of the path, over 5.7 hectares of woodland and meadows extend the estate and frame the horizon. Four terraces (353 m²) offer unobstructed views of the countryside, and a solar tracker completes the picture. A rare property, for a buyer who appreciates the spirit of the place and the value of heritage I would be delighted to show you around this estate and tell you all about every corner of it.
